Not only were the movers early, they were pleasant, courteous and went out of their way to be helpful! They were extremely careful with our belongings and went the extra mile at every opportunity! In addition they packed our containers so expertly, without them we wouldn't have gotten half as much in them! I highly recommend A1 Movers and look forward to calling them when it's time to unload my storage containers!!!

We have hired four different moving firms over the past six months (moving in and out of temporary housing). Compared with others, this one had excellent customer service in advance (they confirmed all the details over the phone, asked for an exact arrival time, returned phone calls promptly, etc). The movers themselves were fine, but not as good as others. I was expecting them to bring moving blankets but they didn't. They showed up 50 minutes after we were expecting them, and took several breaks to smoke during the day. They seemed to take an excessively long time packing up the truck, trying to fit as much as possible in the first load, even though we told them we would be making multiple trips. I think that if they hadn't spent so much time on trying to fill every nook and cranny on the truck, we would have finished the job an hour earlier. They banged up some walls on the way in, but our stairs are narrow so that might have been inevitable. On the plus side, they were very careful about wrapping everything up with plastic wrap, and didn't charge for that. They were okay, but I will pick a different firm next time.

Unfortunately when hired helpers work by the hour they don't work nearly as hard. I have had issues with multiple crews that I have hired. They complain about how strenuous the unloading furniture is. They take too many breaks. In most cases, crews do not respect our customer's property or articles of their shipment. It is just difficult. I guess that is what you get when you hire helpers at the last minute.

Neil and Larry were on time and eager to work hard and efficiently despite the humid heat. They moved our furniture with care and respect up four tall flights of stairs without a complaint. In fact, they were incredibly polite throughout the entire move. They are the best movers I can imagine working with!
